Querying the Database

Preparing for roll-up querying

Preparing for roll-up querying
Use these tasks to ensure the eporollup_ tables on the reporting server are populated and ready
for using queries based on the Rolled Up query result types. These tasks should be performed
for each server whose data will be included in the query results.
NOTE:
Using the Rolled-Up Compliance History result type additionally requires that a Boolean
pie chart-based query on managed systems be created on each server. Additionally, on each
server, a Run Query server task needs to be created with a subaction to generate compliance
events based on this query.
